passed safely, over the same dirt road Tuesday night, and police said infiltrators had entered the area since then. > > , Israel's other Arab borders were quiet, but tension remained with Saudi Arabia over Israel's use of the Gulf of Aqaba and with Syria over construction of a “military" bridge in the Huleh Lake district near the Syrian border. The U.N. Security Council Tuesday night postponed further discussion of the Syrian complaint against Israel's construction of th£ bridge and ordered a new and fuller rppqrt from the Palestine trucpzSupeivkilonorganization. Israeli ForeiglT"Minister Golda Meir meanwhile answered Saudi ‘Arabian charges in the Security Council Tuesday that Israel was flying military planes close to gun positions in Saudi territory and that Israeli warships were maneuvering in the gulf. Syria Plans Protest Mrs. Meir denied any provocative actions and said it was “inconceivable" that Israel would do anything to interfere with the peaceful passage of any nation's shipping up and down the gulf.
t j She also said Israel was willing »I to help all Arab countries conduct : pilgrimages to Mecca via the Gulf of Aqaba and said Israel could » supply pilgrims with water, supi plies, medical services, postal f communications and sometimes i even ship repairs. She also ex- ' pressed regret the Arab states t denied entry of Moslems living in Israel. Egypt's semi - official Middle East News Agency reported in ; Cairo that the Syrian government ' was planning to protest to the I U.S. governmeh* against Ameri- ■ can planes which it said had committed “flagrant trespass" over i Syrian territory. I The agency, quoting "official sources in the Syrian civil aviation department,” said an American plane flew over Syria Monday without permission and that another American plane was forced previously to land at Damascus airport for “having encroached on Syrian air space.” Egypt turned from international to domestic problems and President Gamal Abdel Nasser set up a three-man committee to select candidates for Egypt’s forthcoming general elections. A total of 2,508 Egyptians have put forth their names .as candidates for the 350 seats in the Egyptian parliament in the forthcoming elections. The committee was given 24 hours to select those permissible. In other Middle East developments; , Geneva: An emergency refugee aid conference of 72 non-govern-mental international organizations advised Israel and the Arab states to resolve the problem of 920,000 Palestine refugees by integrating them into their Arab surroundings. Rome: British and Egyptian trade negotiations were reported completely bogged down with neither side willing to give way on compensation claims rising out of the Suez invasion. STRESSES (Caatlaned tram Pane O«e> problem of trade with Red China have reached an impasse. But he said there was an agreement among the Allies not to say anything officially until Thursday. The United States has favored stiffer controls on trade with Red China than the Allies are willing to follow. There have been reports that Britain is prepared to “go it alone” on China trade policy. —There is no change in administration policy to bar American newsmen from going to Red China. Dulles said some suggestions on this problem have been received, however, and are under study in the State Department. He did not elaborate.

Nev. <W —Atomic Energy Commission scientists today called off the second blast in the 20-»hot series of A-tests The test of hte second "midget" nuclear devise was postponed for 24 hours after a weather evahrfr tion meeting. The next weather session was’ scheduled for thisafternoon. After a delay of nearly two weeks, the AEC Tuesday set off the initial detonation in the United States’ most extensive series of nuclear testa. The device, packing a wallop of 10,000 tons of TNT, was set off atop a 500-foot tower. A doubleheaded mushroom cloud boiled up to 35,000 feet and.moved slowly northwest over virtually uninhabited territory. Chugo Koito of the Japanese Kyodo News Service said he was “somewhat disappointed" with the test. “It is not as terrible as I had expected." he said. “But it is terrible enough. Like all the Japanese people I would like to see all A-bomb and H-bomb tests halted immediately because of the fall-out ganger.” The boiling remnants of the cloud from Tuesday's detonation moved off in two concentrations which the AEC said would not drop “anything more than a light fallout.” Many Trout Caught In Geneva Quarry k s Many trout have been taken from the recently stocked quarry just east of Geneva, district conservationist Jack Hurst reported today.

Harold Zeis with him as newsmen entered the governor’s office for the conference. Earlier in his administration, Handley had indicated rather strongly that he felt gambling should be a “home rule” enforcement proposition and that state police should adopt a hands-, off policy. i In the course of the conference, a reporter told Handley at the governor's request of a gambling place he said is operating in Hamilton County. Zeis jotted down the information Regarding hie health, Handley said he is “in good shape.” He said he has no ulcer but “a stomach disorder” which would require him to rest and watch his diet.

Iron Liege May Be Out Os Belmont CAMDEN, N. J. — ffl — An application of poultice powder and cold water held the key today as to whether Iron Liege, the ailing Kentucky Derby winner, will run in the Belmont Stakes, June 15. , The Calumet Farm's colt has developed a splint on his right foreleg and trainer Jimmy Jones fears it will put Iron Liege on the sidelines with stablemate Gen. Duke, with only Barbizon left to groom for the last jewely in racing’s triple crown. Jones hopes the treatment will reduce an inflamation that has built up around the splint, described as resembling a pearl or wart. “A little piece of calcium gets in there and nature builds up around that as a means of protection,” Jones said. “The soreness didn't develop until after Iron Liege won the $50,000 added Jersey Stakes at Gaden State Park last Saturday.” Jones said it was “very doubtful” Irop Liege would be able to make the Belmont, adding there was a possibility he might be sidelined for two months.

Complete arrangements have not been worked out, Lehman stressed, but the work is going forward. Dust and mud from the dirt entranceways to the cattle barn have been a big problem at the annual fair. <
